Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo Maremma Toscana 2022 750ml
Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo — Maremma Toscana 2022
Poggio al Tufo Rompicollo is a Tuscan “Super Value,” crafted from a single-vineyard site in the Alta Maremma.
Poggio al Tufo is the Maremma estate of Tommasi Family Estates, one of Italy's most respected multi-generational wine families. Situated in the Alta Maremma near Pitigliano, the estate takes its name from the volcanic tufo rock that defines its soils — porous, mineral-rich, and unlike anything found in the more celebrated corners of Tuscany. The Rompicollo vineyard sits on a south-facing slope where the combination of volcanic soils, Mediterranean warmth, and coastal breezes produces wines of uncommon depth and freshness for the price.
The 2022 Rompicollo is a blend of 60% Sangiovese and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon — a Tuscan-international marriage that works beautifully here. The Sangiovese brings structure, acidity, and that characteristic Tuscan earthiness; the Cabernet adds body, dark fruit, and a plush mid-palate that rounds out the blend. The result is a wine that punches well above its price point: serious, food-friendly, and immediately approachable.
Deep, bright ruby in the glass. The nose is elegant and layered — ripe blackberries and raspberries, dried aromatic herbs, a whisper of sweet spice, and the faint mineral signature of volcanic soil. On the palate it is full-bodied and mellow, with velvety tannins, a mouth-filling texture, and a finish that lingers with dark fruit and earthy warmth. Richly flavored yet supple — a wine that rewards both the casual weeknight table and the more considered dinner.

Chateau Ste. Michelle Chardonnay Columbia Valley 2024 750ml
Chateau Ste. Michelle | Chardonnay | Columbia Valley, Washington State | 2024
Chateau Ste. Michelle is Washington State's founding winery and most iconic producer, with a history stretching back to 1934. Based in Woodinville, the winery has been instrumental in establishing the Columbia Valley as one of America's premier wine regions — and their Columbia Valley Chardonnay remains one of the most consistent and best-value expressions of Washington State white wine available anywhere.
The Columbia Valley AVA is one of the largest and most diverse wine regions in the United States, stretching across eastern Washington. Its continental climate — with long, sunny days, cool nights, and low rainfall — allows Chardonnay to ripen fully while retaining natural acidity and freshness. Grapes are sourced from vineyards throughout the valley, blended to create a wine of complexity and consistency vintage after vintage.
The 2024 is crafted in a fresh, soft style with 50% of the wine aged sur lie for five months in a mix of neutral oak and 5% new oak, while the remaining 50% is fermented in stainless steel — a winemaking approach that delivers both texture and brightness. The result is a Chardonnay of genuine balance: juicy apple and sweet citrus fruit character, complemented by subtle spice and oak nuances, with a clean, food-friendly finish.
Incredibly versatile at the table — pair with roast chicken, grilled fish, pasta with cream sauce, seafood risotto, brie, and soft-ripened cheeses.

Col d'Orcia Brunello di Montalcino Organic 2020 750ml
Col d’Orcia · Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2020
One of Montalcino’s original estates, Col d’Orcia is known for a traditional approach that lets Sangiovese lead. The estate’s limestone and marl vineyards sit about 1,500 feet above sea level between the Orcia River and Sant’Angelo in Colle. In 2020, a frost-free winter and dry spring were followed by summer rain that supported ripening; the Consorzio del Brunello and a panel of Masters of Wine rated the vintage five stars.
The hand-harvested grapes fermented for 18–20 days in temperature-controlled, shallow stainless-steel tanks. The wine aged three years in large Slavonian and Allier oak casks, then a year in bottle. Expect ripe cherry and sour cherry, hints of jam, vanilla and light toast, balanced tannins, and a savory, persistent finish.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate · 94 points · 2020: The organic Col d'Orcia 2020 Brunello di Montalcino offers a classic Sangiovese bouquet with warm-vintage intensity. It shows sweet aromas of raspberry tart and cooked cherry. There is a delicate element of smoked spice at the back. The tannins are open-knit, and the wine offers immediate drinking pleasure. It should be exciting to follow this wine's future evolution. “We try to protect the freshness of Sangiovese,” says Count Francesco Marone Cinzano. “That is our reading of traditional Brunello.”
Decanter · 93 points · 2020: Among Montalcino’s larger estates, Col d’Orcia is also one of the region’s most consistent values – especially given its solid ageing potential in most vintages. The 2020 is no exception. There is a captivating sumptuousness to the nose as it radiates lush red cherries and strawberry bush. With air, an underlying flintiness emerges, as well as a mix of sweet garden and exotic herbs. A surprisingly hefty structure of dry, sandy tannins curbs its generosity, while leather and orange lurk through the stony core. Somewhat muddled now, but harmony is within sight.
Jeb Dunnuck · 93 points · 2020: A saturated red color, the 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino was aged three years in barrel and captures the richness of the southern sector while staying pure and energetic. It offers ripe aromatics of black cherries, dried herbs, leather, and dark earth. Medium to full-bodied, it has ripe tannins, bright acidity, and a savory finish with a touch of warmth.
James Suckling · 93 points · 2020: A fresh and refined red with plum and orange character, as well as fine tannins. It’s medium-bodied, lively and focused. A little tight at the end, suggesting two or three years will allow it to open. A more traditional Brunello here. Drink after 2027.
Vinous · 92 points · 2020: The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino opens slowly with a blend of black cherry and minty herb scents elevated by hints of blood orange. It displays silky textures and a lifted feel, with tart wild berry fruit aromas and mineral tones accentuated by rosy inner florals. The 2020 imparts edgy tannins offset by a tinge of zesty acidity.
Wine Spectator · 92 points · 2020: Balsamic notes of tomato leaf, juniper and thyme rub shoulders with strawberry, cherry, blood orange and earth in this dry, elegant red. Ends firmly, with lightly chewy tannins and a mouthwatering feel. Best from 2027 through 2042.

Peter Michael Winery L'Après-Midi Sauvignon Blanc 2024 750ml
Expert Review — Vintage 2024
Wine Advocate — 94 Points | The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc L’Après-Midi contains 6% Sémillon. Matured in around 15% new French oak and bottled the spring after harvest. Continually unfurling scents of flint, white peach, tarragon, lemongrass, graham cracker, chamomile, and honey. The full-bodied palate bursts with layers of flinty stone and citrus fruit, lifted by a silky texture, succulent acidity, and a long, perfumed finish.
Winemaker Description
L’Après-Midi (The Afternoon) was named in honor of the pleasures of a slow and lazy afternoon — which, according to Sir Peter, is a good time to start enjoying this wine. One of two estate-grown Sauvignon Blanc/Sémillon blends, the grapes are grown alongside the red Bordeaux varietals within Les Pavots Vineyard, benefiting from steep slopes, excellent drainage, and cool air at altitude.
Whole-cluster-pressed and naturally fermented in barrel, forgoing malolactic fermentation to preserve the fruity and zesty character of the Sauvignon Blanc. Predominantly Sauvignon Blanc with just a touch of Sémillon.

Roberto Henriquez Rivera del Notro Blanco (WHITE) 2024 Itata Chile 750ml
Roberto Henríquez · 'Rivera del Notro' Blanco · Itata Valley · 2024
Roberto Henríquez is one of Chile's most important natural wine voices — a tireless champion of the Itata Valley, a region in the Bio-Bío that was making wine centuries before Maipo or Colchagua ever appeared on a label. His vineyards are planted with the old-vine field blends that Spanish missionaries brought to Chile in the 16th century: Sémillon, Chasselas, and Moscatel de Alejandría, grown on granite soils by small-scale farmers who have tended these vines for generations. The 'Rivera del Notro' Blanco — named for the notro tree that blooms red along the riverbanks of Itata — is his signature white: a modern-day interpretation of ancestral Chilean winemaking, vinified with extended skin contact that unlocks a depth and complexity no stainless-steel Chardonnay can touch. WA:92. At $20.99, it's one of the most exciting natural whites in South America.
The 2024 opens with a heady, complex bouquet of potpourri, resinous herbs, dried flowers, and a hint of saison beer — the unmistakable signature of skin-contact vinification done right. On the palate: svelte and elegantly concentrated, with a broad, refreshing finish that lingers with phenolic grip, a streak of bright acidity, and retronasal floral notes that keep pulling you back. Serve slightly cool — this is a wine for the table, not the cocktail hour. Drink now through 2027.
“A modern-day interpretation of ancestral Itata white wines… svelte, elegantly concentrated mouthfeel. The finish is broad and refreshing, lingering with phenolic grip laced with a streak of acidity and retronasal floral notes.”

Domaine Anne et Herve Sigaut Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuees 2021 750ml
Expert Review - Vintage 2021
Burghound | A perfumed and exuberantly spicy nose offers up a blend of both red and dark cherry along with floral nuances. The wonderfully sleek, refined and punchy medium weight flavors possess a gorgeous texture thanks to the very fine-grained tannins supported the firm, youthfully austere and mineral-driven finish. This is textbook Fuées. Outstanding.
Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 750ml (Pre-Sale Price - ETA October 2026)
A beautifully mature Vintage Port from Portugal’s historic Douro Valley, Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 combines richness, structure and the remarkable complexity that develops through extended bottle aging. Crafted from classic indigenous Douro grape varieties, this full-bodied Port offers depth and concentration while showing the increasingly refined character of a Vintage Port approaching two decades of evolution.
Produced from the highly regarded 2007 harvest, this is a traditional Vintage Port designed to develop primarily in bottle. Its deep color, concentrated fruit and firm structure have gradually softened and integrated with age, revealing greater elegance and complexity.
Region & Style
Country: Portugal
Region: Douro Valley
Appellation: Porto
Wine Type: Fortified Red Wine
Style: Vintage Port
Vintage: 2007
Bottle Size: 750ml
Alcohol: 20% ABV
Winemaker: Álvaro van Zeller
Grape Varieties
Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 is produced from a traditional blend of classic Douro red grape varieties:
- Touriga Nacional
- Touriga Franca
- Tinta Roriz
- Tinta Barroca
- Tinto Cão
These indigenous varieties form the backbone of many of the Douro’s finest Vintage Ports, contributing intense fruit, aromatic complexity, structure and excellent aging potential.
Winemaking & Aging
The grapes are harvested from the steep vineyard terraces of the Douro when fully ripe. During fermentation, grape spirit is added to stop fermentation while a portion of the grapes’ natural sweetness remains, creating the richness, intensity and balance characteristic of Port.
Vintage Port spends only a relatively short period in wood before bottling and is intended to mature slowly in bottle. Over time, youthful fruit and firm tannins gradually integrate, while the wine develops greater aromatic depth, softer texture and increasingly complex secondary flavors.
Tasting Notes
Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 displays a deep, concentrated color with a full-bodied and richly structured palate. The aromatic profile is fine and expressive, showing the depth and intensity expected from traditionally produced Vintage Port.
With bottle age, the wine has begun to soften and evolve, developing greater harmony, structural complexity and mature character while retaining the richness and concentration at its core.
The finish is long and composed, making this an excellent choice for lovers of mature, traditionally styled Vintage Port.
Serving & Decanting
Serve at approximately 16°C / 61°F.
Vintage Port naturally develops sediment as it matures in bottle. For best results, stand the bottle upright for approximately 24 hours before opening, allowing the sediment to settle, then decant carefully before serving.
Serve in a generous Port or red-wine glass to allow the wine’s mature aromas and complexity to fully unfold.
Food Pairing
A classic after-dinner wine, Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 is an excellent companion to Stilton, Gorgonzola and other blue cheeses.
It also pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, chocolate desserts, walnuts, dried fruits and mature cheeses. For a savory pairing, try it with richly flavored dishes such as steak au poivre.
Cellaring
Store horizontally in a cool, dark environment with a stable temperature and minimal vibration. Vintage Port is one of the world’s great long-lived wine styles, and properly stored bottles can continue developing complexity for many years.
Because sediment is a natural result of bottle maturation, mature Vintage Port should be handled gently and decanted before serving.
About Maynard’s
Maynard’s is the flagship Port brand associated with Fernando and Álvaro van Zeller, continuing the van Zeller family’s centuries-old connection to the Port wine trade.
The Maynard’s name honors Walter Maynard, born in 1652, one of the early English merchants associated with shipping Port wine from Portugal to England. Today, the house continues this tradition through a collection of Vintage Ports, aged Tawnies and rare single-harvest Colheitas.
A mature Vintage Port with nearly two decades of development, Maynard’s 2007 offers richness, history and classic Douro character—an excellent bottle for the cellar, a special occasion or a memorable vintage-dated gift.
Maynard’s Vintage Port 2007 750ml
Blue Quail Potter Valley UNOAKED Chardonnay Mendocino Organic 2025 750ml
Blue Quail | Potter Valley Unoaked Chardonnay | Mendocino County | 2025 | Certified Organic
Blue Quail's Potter Valley Chardonnay is a deliberate departure from the California norm — no oak, no malolactic fermentation, no butter. What you get instead is a bright, dry, fruit-forward white that lets the cool-climate character of Potter Valley speak clearly. Sourced from certified organic vineyards in one of Mendocino County's highest-elevation and most temperature-variable sub-appellations, this is Chardonnay built for the table rather than the trophy shelf.
Potter Valley sits at the northeastern edge of Mendocino County, separated from the warmer coastal valleys by the Mayacamas Mountains. The combination of warm days and cool nights preserves natural acidity and extends the growing season, allowing the Chardonnay to develop ripe orchard fruit flavors without losing freshness or structure. Organic farming across the estate reflects a commitment to soil health and clean, expressive fruit.
The wine is fermented in stainless steel and sees no oak contact and no malolactic fermentation — a deliberate choice that keeps the palate crisp, linear and food-friendly. The result is a Chardonnay with genuine verve: fresh and bright on the nose with aromas of ripe pear, green apple, apricot and white peach, accented by wildflowers and a touch of flint. The palate is lively and well balanced, with flavors of young peach, citrus, pineapple and white fig, carried by mouthwatering acidity through a clean, mineral-tinged finish.
Highly versatile at the table. Pairs beautifully with oysters, clams, grilled trout, shrimp, sushi, Thai green curry, General Tso’s chicken, asparagus risotto, roasted root vegetables and fresh cheeses. Equally at home as a standalone aperitif.

Domaine Clos de la Chapelle Meursault Cuvée Confluence 2023 750ml (Offer)
92 Points - Wine Spectator
89-91 Points - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
Two vineyards. Two soils. One seamless expression of Meursault. Domaine Clos de la Chapelle's 2023 Cuvee Confluence draws from En Marcausse and Les Vignes Blanches, contiguous lieux-dits whose contrasting geology gives this village-level Chardonnay a complexity that rivals many a Premier Cru. Clay-driven richness meets limestone-driven tension, and the result is a white Burgundy of genuine depth, harmony and length.
The Place
Meursault occupies the heart of the Cote de Beaune, flanked by Volnay to the north and Puligny-Montrachet to the south. It is one of Burgundy's most celebrated white-wine villages, internationally recognized for Chardonnay that combines generous orchard fruit, hazelnut complexity and a pronounced limestone-derived mineral character with vibrant, food-friendly acidity.
Although Meursault has no Grand Cru vineyards, its finest Premier Cru and village-level climats produce some of Burgundy's most distinctive and age-worthy whites. The appellation encompasses approximately 382.64 hectares of white-wine production, including 103.79 hectares of Premier Cru, planted predominantly to Chardonnay in a complex mosaic of limestone, marl, clay and gravel.
The Meaning of Cuvee Confluence
The name Confluence speaks to a meeting of opposites: old vines and young, two adjoining vineyards, two distinct but complementary terroirs. Although En Marcausse and Les Vignes Blanches share a boundary, the soil composition shifts noticeably at the point where one vineyard meets the other, and it is precisely this contrast that defines the wine.
The Vineyards
En Marcausse lies immediately below Les Petits Charrons on the Meursault slope. Natural drainage is encouraged by a break in the topography, while the vineyard's higher clay content contributes body, texture and breadth to the finished wine. The domaine farms approximately 0.20 hectare here.
Les Vignes Blanches takes its name from the pale, gravelly limestone that characterizes the site. These chalkier soils deliver greater mineral tension, freshness and precision. The domaine holds approximately 0.41 hectare, farmed from both younger and older vines. For the 2023 vintage, Jasper Morris noted that a section previously planted to Pinot Noir has been top-grafted to Chardonnay, a change that will further strengthen the domaine's white-wine holdings from 2025 onward.
The Grape: 100% Chardonnay
Chardonnay is uniquely sensitive to variations in soil, elevation and exposure. In the limestone and clay soils of Meursault, it produces wines of generous orchard-fruit character, citrus freshness, hazelnut complexity and a distinct mineral or saline undertone. In Cuvee Confluence, it expresses both sides of the blend simultaneously: the rounded texture and ripeness of clay-rich En Marcausse, and the citrus-driven freshness and chalky tension of Les Vignes Blanches.
Viticulture and Winemaking
Domaine Clos de la Chapelle's vineyards are certified organic and cultivated according to biodynamic principles. Soils are worked regularly, chemical pesticides and fertilizers are avoided, and yields are carefully controlled to encourage concentration and a clear expression of each individual site.
Grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted. Vinification is conducted with minimal intervention, allowing the contrasting personalities of En Marcausse and Les Vignes Blanches to remain visible in the finished wine. Fermentation and maturation in oak barrels add texture and complexity, with restrained notes of toast, vanilla and spice that integrate into rather than dominate the wine's fruit and mineral core.
Tasting Notes
The 2023 Cuvee Confluence opens with aromas of ripe peach, yellow apple and pear, lifted by citrus peel, white flowers, toasted hazelnut and a delicate oak influence. The palate is supple, juicy and harmonious, with flavors of peach, apple tart and ripe citrus framed by oyster-shell salinity and finely integrated toasted oak. The clay-rich component contributes roundness and depth; the limestone soils bring acidity, mineral tension and focus. Subtle notes of vanilla, butterscotch and hazelnut emerge toward the finish. Despite its generous fruit and texture, the wine remains fresh and balanced, concluding with impressive harmony, mineral persistence and length.
Professional Ratings
92 Points - Wine Spectator: This beautifully integrated white features peach, apple tart and oyster shell flavors framed with toasty oak. Supple and juicy, this ends with echoes of vanilla and butterscotch. Shows excellent harmony and length.
89-91 Points - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy (Barrel Sample): The Cuvee Confluence comes from the top of Vignes Blanches and Marcausses, where the pinot part has now been top-grafted to chardonnay (which will really deliver from 2025). Mid lemon yellow. A pleasing fruit on the cusp between white and yellow, decent acidity, some length, not quite the flow which gave me such pleasure in the Vignes Blanches.
The Domaine
Domaine Clos de la Chapelle is a small, historic Cote de Beaune estate based in Bligny-les-Beaune, closely associated with the renowned village of Volnay. It takes its name from the Volnay Premier Cru Clos de la Chapelle monopole, a walled vineyard situated opposite the historic chapel of Notre Dame de Pitie, acquired in 2011 and renamed in honor of its flagship terroir.
Today the estate farms approximately five hectares across 16 individual terroirs in Volnay, Pommard, Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses, Meursault and Corton. All vineyards are certified organic and farmed biodynamically. Grapes are harvested by hand, yields are kept low and cellar intervention is minimized. Total production averages only approximately 1,800 cases annually, making each bottling highly limited.
Food Pairing
Cuvee Confluence is an excellent partner for roast chicken, sole meuniere, halibut with brown butter, sea bass, scallops and lobster ravioli. It also pairs beautifully with creamy mushroom dishes, risotto, pork tenderloin, veal in a light cream sauce and mature cheeses such as Comte or Gruyere.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve at approximately 16 degrees C (61 degrees F). Slightly cooler service will emphasize citrus and mineral character; allowing the wine to warm gradually in the glass will reveal additional texture, hazelnut and oak-spice complexity. The 2023 is expressive enough to enjoy young with a little air, but its acidity and mineral structure should support several years of further development in the cellar.

Torrebruna Sangiovese Tuscany 2020 750ml
Torrebruna · Sangiovese · IGT Toscana · Tuscany · Italy · 2020
Torrebruna is one of Tuscany’s most reliable over-achievers at the value end of the spectrum — a Sangiovese-based IGT Toscana that consistently punches well above its price point. Where many wines in this tier can be thin or overly acidic, Torrebruna delivers a riper, more robust profile: opaque in the glass, generous on the nose, and built with the kind of fruit-forward character that appeals equally to traditional Italian wine lovers and those who enjoy a more California-influenced style. The 2020 Tuscan vintage was exceptional — warm and dry, producing wines of deep concentration and ripe tannins.
The 2020 pours opaque with a red berry rim. The nose opens with cherry, dark fruits, and vanilla. On the palate, silky tannins frame flavors of dried strawberry, plum, violet, and red cherry — robust and balanced, with a finish that lingers with warmth and fruit. A weeknight Tuscan red that over-delivers at every pour.

Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay Napa Valley White Label 2022 750ml
Explore Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay Napa Valley
Winemaker Description
This profound and powerful Chardonnay exhibits a rich, complex intensity that can only be found in unfiltered wines. The grapes are predominantly grown in the Carneros region where bay breezes and morning fog combine to create the cooler climate ideal for growing Chardonnay rich with concentrated flavors.
The single square mile of hillside pioneered by Peter Newton in 1977 is an impressive site, with expansive vistas of Napa Valley and beyond. It was the conclusion of his irreverent quest to create wines that would capture the multifaceted character of Napa: embracing the radiant California sun whilst featuring the structure offered by the valley's cool, foggy nights.
He understood Spring Mountain was the place he was looking for to create this rare, fresh expression of Napa. The terraced mountain estate has less than one-fifth of its total 490 acres planted to vines at elevations ranging from 500 to 1,600 feet above sea level.
The non-farmed acreage remains in its native forested state providing natural habitat for indigenous wildlife.
Memo Summary Notes
The 2022 Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay (Napa Valley) is a benchmark for the "unfiltered" style in California—a technique Newton pioneered in the early 1980s. This wine is prized for its texture and complexity, which comes from bottled-in sediment that would normally be stripped away by filtration.
The "White Label" is the standard Napa Valley Unfiltered bottling. It sits above their entry-level "Skyside" line but below the ultra-premium "Single Vineyard" series (like the Beckstoffer Carneros Lake). It is widely considered one of the best value-to-quality ratios in luxury Napa Chardonnay.
Unique Winemaking Approach
Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay embodies a unique winemaking philosophy that emphasizes the true essence of the vineyard. By employing small-batch techniques and avoiding filtration, the wine retains its natural flavors and complexities. The result is a vibrant and rich Chardonnay that showcases the terroir of Napa Valley. This method is not only environmentally friendly but also allows the wine to express its authentic character.
Tasting Notes
This exquisite Chardonnay offers a delightful palate with notes of fresh pear, green apple, and hints of tropical fruits. The creamy texture is complemented by a subtle oak influence, providing depth without overwhelming the palate. You'll appreciate the wine's balanced acidity that leads to a lingering finish, making it perfect for pairing with seafood, poultry, or enjoyed alone.
Food Pairing and Serving Suggestions
Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay is incredibly versatile and pairs well with a variety of dishes. For optimal enjoyment, serve it slightly chilled at 50-55°F. It complements grilled salmon, creamy pasta dishes, and even light salads exceptionally well. This wine is an excellent choice for both casual gatherings and special occasions, ensuring it meets the varied tastes of all wine enthusiasts.
